Once in awhile we'll come across a band that we have not heard before that really enchants us. We were watching the movie "I Am Number Four" Friday night as a family. We had missed it in the theaters so we made it a home video event at the house since the kids had been patiently waiting to see it. The movie was a lot of fun, much better than I was expecting. The closing credits were accompanied by a beautiful, slightly haunting melody. We waited for the end of the credits and saw the band's name, "Civil Twilight".
We immediately opened iTunes to find out more. After listening to several of their songs over and over thise weekend, we have a new band to add to our list of favorites. Civil Twilight has a sound that is reminiscent of U-2 and Coldplay combined. Yet they are very unique. As a vocalist myself, I was very appreciative of the lead vocalist's range and heart. He has the ability to convey such intimacy in his voice on some of the softer tracks and can belt it out with the best of them when the song calls for it. Really a great band to listen to. Our favorite songs are "Letters from the Sky", "Human" (beautiful) and "Teardrop". If you get a minute, check out "Civil Twilight". Enjoy ; )
